Pylint not detecting type stub modules

[jakeanq]

Bug description

I'm trying to lint using type stubs from the types-usd package, which provides type stubs as pxr-stubs for the pxr USD module. I would at least like pylint to not complain about missing members.

Example code:

# pylint: disable=missing-docstring,missing-module-docstring
from pxr import Usd


def turtle(name: str) -> Usd.Stage:
    Usd.Stage.turtle()
    return Usd.Stage.Open(name)

Possibly related to #10017

Configuration

Command used

pylint --rcfile= test_usd.py

Adding --prefer-stubs y did not seem to make a difference.

Pylint output

************* Module test_usd
test_usd.py:2:0: E0401: Unable to import 'pxr' (import-error)

Note that if usd-core is installed (requires Python <3.13 currently), the error becomes:

************* Module test_usd
test_usd.py:5:25: E1101: Module 'pxr.Usd' has no 'Stage' member (no-member)
test_usd.py:6:4: E1101: Module 'pxr.Usd' has no 'Stage' member (no-member)
test_usd.py:7:11: E1101: Module 'pxr.Usd' has no 'Stage' member (no-member)

Expected behavior

Ideally a no-member error for Usd.Stage.turtle(), otherwise no errors would also be reasonable.

Note that pyright detects the stubs as expected:

.../pylint_usd/test_usd.py
  .../pylint_usd/test_usd.py:6:15 - error: Cannot access attribute "turtle" for class "type[Stage]"
    Attribute "turtle" is unknown (reportAttributeAccessIssue)
1 error, 0 warnings, 0 informations

Pylint does not use typing, I'm going to close as a duplicate of #4813
